Leeching & Technical Problems / Re: Why h264?
« on: September 13, 2005, 11:51:26 am »h.264 DVD version is encoded at a higher resolution than the xvid one.
h.264 = 768 x 432 = 331776 pixels
xvid = 704 x 360 = 253440 pixels
332776/253440 =1.3130366
so, the h.264 has 31.3% more pixels to decode than the xvid. So according to my math, the h.264 actually uses less CPU to decode. Interesting, huh?
